Nice new book.............
A History of Medieval Coinage in England provides an illustrated guide to the coinage of medieval England from the Norman Conquest of 1066 to the reign of the first Tudor king, Henry VII.
While providing guidance on identification this book also places coinage in its historical context and gives insight into how coins were manufactured, used in circulation and lost or buried in a hoard. It is illustrated by more than 530 colour photographs, as well as 125 distribution maps, tables and images of places and people which help bring to life the medieval world in which coins were used and lost.

Re: A History of Medieval Coinage in England
it does look a good book tom, i have on my hit list A History of Medieval Coinage in England by Sam Moorhead http://www.greenlightpublishing.com/PBS ... D=12975992 he thoroughly recommended it when i met him not long ago during some Roman coin training at Liverpool, he makes no profit from it, an is probably the same for Richard Kelleher for the Hammered coin book.
as well as completing The Norweb Collection on 17th century Tokens, two down a few to go. lol
